SYNOPSIS

DESCRIPTION

14        The find_libs program is used to find the actual pathname of a library
15        specified on a cc(1) command line.  This allows cook(1) to know these
16        dependencies.
17

OPTIONS

19        The following options are understood.
20
21        -Lpath
22                Specify a path to search for libraries on.  If more than one
23                is specified, they will be scanned in the order given before
24                the standard /usr/lib and /lib places.  This is like the same
25                argument to cc(1), and the usual find_libs option abbreviation
26                rules do not apply.
27
28        -lname
29                Name a library to be searched for.  This is like the same
30                argument to cc(1), and the usual find_libs option abbreviation
31                rules do not apply.
32
33        -Help
34                Give some information on how to use the find_libs command.
35
36        -VERSion
37                Tell the version of the find_libs command currently executing.
38
39        All other options will result in a diagnostic error.
40
41        All options may be abbreviated; the abbreviation is documented as the
42        upper case letters, all lower case letters and underscores (_) are
43        optional.  You must use consecutive sequences of optional letters.
44
45        All options are case insensitive, you may type them in upper case or
46        lower case or a combination of both, case is not important.
47
48        For example: the arguments "-help", "-HEL" and "-h" are all
49        interpreted to mean the -Help option.  The argument "-hlp" will not be
50        understood, because consecutive optional characters were not supplied.
51
52        Options and other command line arguments may be mixed arbitrarily on
53        the command line.
54
55        The GNU long option names are understood.  Since all option names for
56        find_libs are long, this means ignoring the extra leading '-'.  The
57        "--option=value" convention is also understood.
58

EXIT STATUS

60        The find_libs command will exit with a status of 1 on any error.  The
61        find_libs command will only exit with a status of 0 if there are no
62        errors.
